    People from around the world have been furious at Americans for electing trump, and for not stopping his demolition derby. The fact that only ~32% of voters chose him, and that the US voting system is corrupted, has been irrelevant, and the millions of Americans who have repeatedly protested means nothing.

    Now all nations finally have the perfect opportunity to censure this wannabe emperor, but there is only silence. Maybe a strongly worded letter or a look of disapproval? Anything? But we outnumber the fascists! This must mean every human on earth is complicit.

      I think you need to take another look at world history if you’re expecting the masses to step up and do anything. Things have to get a lot worse before people get to that point.

      But, just because you don’t currently see a public resistance doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
